From PSU: "The new, revised models of the PlayStation 5 weigh in at 300 grams (0.66 pounds) lighter than the original models. The big question has been “How?” With the specs and outer form factor the same, what has Sony changed or sacrificed to result in the new model weighing less. The answer is a smaller heatsink, resulting in the revised console running hotter."
Come celebrate the 1-year anniversary of Diablo IV and the 2-year anniversary of Diablo Immortal! There are heaps of rewards to mark these celebrations with a bounty of devilish goods across both games.
1 more month then I can celebrate 1 year since i stopped playing and uninstalled the game.
Tales of the Shire has many hurdles to jump to live up to the J.R.R. Tolkien masterpiece, and magical elements might be its most pertinent one.

The Nintendo Switch™ version will be launched at a later date." - NACON and Big Ant Studios.
It's only 3-4 degree difference and isn't an overheating issue. And, the fans are designed to ramp up as heat increases, so where it is doesn't matter as it would generate heat in an enclosed space eventually regardless if you don't have ventilation. Not an issue with the console.
But, hey, let's use "significant" and "worse" to sell the video while ignoring how fans work.
Edit: They also completely gloss over that the new fan has longer fan blades by not having empty space towards the center. That means more air moved each rotation.
Nice. Just want everyone wanted to hear.
So smaller heat sink overall and no longer any copper. Sure technically it does run hotter and that does make it "worse" but I don't think in the grand scheme of things it's going to matter. Sony sees an opportunity to cut cost and they believe that this is appropriate. Still a bummer though that we're losing that heat sink not even a year into this console cycle as it was one of the talking points leading right up to its launch.
PSU can make anything positive sound negative. Man, I love N4G.
Things change with board revisions everybody knows that a few degrees hotter I doubt will kill the machine. Sony thoroughly tests their shit last thing they want is to repeat the mistake Microsoft made with the 360 of heating issues. NA has yet to see the new board revision PS5's are still hard to find out in the wild. These guys make it sound like they never heard of a board revision before.
